Sauna Detoxification Studied by University

Removing harmful chemicals from the body is not a new subject. Chemicals which people are exposed to every day in the air, from the sun, in the clothes they wear and the food they eat have certain chemical properties that can be harmful over time. Some of these chemicals can even cause serious health issues such as respiratory and heart failure, Alzheimer’s disease and various forms of cancer.

For a number of years now, saunas have been considered to be a good way to detox chemicals out of the body. These chemicals can be anything from drugs and alcohol to radiation poisoning and chemicals breathed in everyday air. At Narconon Arrowhead, the drug rehabilitation center’s detoxification program is centered on a low heat sauna treatment.  Many people have wondered if a sauna can really work to remove toxins, and now university researchers are looking into the subject as well.
